Just curious as to how your play styles might differ / relate to my own! I've been trying to play in a high rise apartment, but its always a small, idyllic suburb in Newcrest that takes my vote. ...
It depends on the story I'm trying to tell. I am a story-teller in The Sims 4, but I also like to do challenges. When I'm creating a big story definitely houses. If I'm just doing a 1-3 person story I like apartments better as I hate small houses.
